Timebomb

Seconds are left on the countdown Panic attack, the next normal in bloom I let you go to get a grip on myself But will you welcome me back as someone else? All my life I've been a time bomb (Now time is running out) Juxtapose me with my past self (A doubt I can't surmount) It's survival of the restless (Survival of the restless) So split the difference between us Looking back on the things that I've done I should have known that I've always had more than enough If tonight I fall asleep for the last timе I want to be proud of the things that I've donе right If I could learn how to hold my head up Maybe life wouldn't seem like it's passin' me by If I could give myself what I give to you Then maybe I'd find strength to hold on to Consumed by what I can't undo Here we go again Beyond the barricade, rip the curtain away And you'll see the mess I've made Beyond the barricade, rip the flesh away And you'll see it's me you saved If I could learn how to hold my head up Maybe life wouldn't seem like it's passin' me by If I could give myself what I give to you Then maybe I'd find strength to hold on to If I could learn how to hold my head up Maybe life wouldn't seem like it's passin' me by If I could give myself what I give to you Then maybe I'd find faith to hold on to Beyond the barricade, rip the flesh away And you'll see the mess I've made Beyond the barricade, wash the fear away And you'll see it's me you saved Beyond the barricade, we wash the fear away And you'll see it's me you saved If I could learn how to hold my head up Maybe life wouldn't seem like it's passin' me by If I could give myself what I give to you Then maybe I'd find strength to hold on to If I could learn how to hold my head up Maybe life wouldn't seem like it's passin' me by If I could give myself what I give to you Then maybe I'd find faith to hold on Oh!
